@PhysicsHawk Reading is the winner here, as everything in reading is connected. My favorite comparison is fantasy (Lord of the Rings, Narnia, etc.) and the Bible. Both contain the ideas of good defeating evil, and doing what is right. They enhance one another, and can build off each other.

Q5-A inference I drew from Feynman’s conclusion to this story is that each person must build their learning on what they already have in their brains. What could you do to increase the number of things in your brain that you can build on? #feynmanchat1920

@CadeTischer @PhysicsHawk I agree, the many differences in our brains exist on a whole range, meaning we are different from the understanding of the big concepts of life, all the way down to the useless and small habits.

Q4-What does the difference in Feynman’s ability to read but not talk while counting and his friend's ability to talk but not read reveal about what interferes with our attention? #feynmanchat1920

@PhysicsHawk First off, it reveals every person is different and better or worse at various tasks, thus different levels of attention vary. Secondly, with the understanding of Creation, God MADE all of us with different intended gifts to best serve His overall plan for us.

@PhysicsHawk Feynman's method was more precise, as he attempted the experiment multiple times, added real world variables to said tests, and concluded that each person may end up doing the test differently. Feynman actually took the time to understand the broader process of the test.

Q3-Feynman’s experiment on time was also quite strange and, while it would NEVER qualify as a publishable science experiment, it is better than the one that got published by the psychologist. What makes Feynman’s method better? #feynmanchat1920

@GrieciNathaniel @PhysicsHawk Being sick does help to begin with, but only doing a single test surely means your experiment has no value.

@PhysicsHawk When we don't have fevers we usually can't count the seconds in a minute on time. I don't know what this guy was thinking because obviously when we are feverish be off even more. Plus he can't conclude something like that based on one result. This is crazy to me! #feynmanchat1920

Q2-Feynman describes a “scientific” experiment that a man did when his wife had a fever and used it to conclude their our sense of time is based on iron reacting in the brain. From a scientific standpoint, what is wrong with his methodology #feynmanchat1920

@PhysicsHawk This "science" experiment does not make any sense. The difficulty of counting at an even rate. The overwhelming odds of clear variation with each attempt. The absurd variables such as the addition of heart rate. And finally, that many people can do the same task differently.

@kbjunior11 @PhysicsHawk It is healthy to have people with different beliefs around you, so that you are not locked it to one type of reasoning or understanding. This can broaden your knowledge of almost any topic.

@PhysicsHawk Oh, everyday. It's too easy for me to say that but it's good to have friends that like to discuss things (and not be afraid to give their own opinions) so I don't get complacent with my thoughts. It could be about sports (favorite players), or anything else. #feynmanchat1920

Q1-Feynman's friend Bernie teaches him that thoughts can be visual when he had once only thought of them as verbal. Give an example of a time when your thinking was changed by a friend. #feynmanchat1920

@PhysicsHawk These conversations usually can happen quite frequently, as me and my friends used to debate every week about some new topic, whether something as useless as video games, to the more grounded issues of spirituality and the Bible. #feynmanchat1920

@TischerCade @PhysicsHawk It is almost unreal on what is visible through a microscope. The fact that there can be a living, moving cell (or part of one), that we can see at such a small scale is truly insane.

@PhysicsHawk I think I see the most mystery when am learning something that is on a microscopic level such as atoms and the nucleus. Theres a sense of mystery simply because I cannot actually see it so I am not sure what is true and what is not.

Q3-Feynman uses pi to talk about the influence of mystery on his scientific thinking. How have you seen that in your life, in science or any other subject? #feynmanchat1920

@GrieciNathaniel @PhysicsHawk I agree, there are many math and science principles we as humans have yet to recognize and understand, but that does not mean they are not there.

@PhysicsHawk The story of the girl explaining how to nit socks, showed me how math and science surround us without us seeing. We are surrounded by angles and scientific principles and don't even notice a lot of the time. Working on engines show many scientific principles. #feynmanchat1920

Q2-How does the story of the girl explaining how to knit socks affect your thinking about other math and science concepts?  Can you think of another example of how something in one field reveals a math or science concept? #feynmanchat1920

@PhysicsHawk Personally, I remember the vocabulary books throughout middle school. Those were purely memorization of definitions, but I never remember using those words in writing, and vaguely in various books we had to read. We only got taught complex writing understanding in high school.

Q4-In school, we often learn definitions without actually understanding concepts.  Given an example of when you have experienced this.  #feynmanchat1920

@kbjunior11 @PhysicsHawk That is quite a range of topics, Keenan. From the sound of it however, it looks like you manage to survive it.

@PhysicsHawk French Class. We would learn the words for food, then the next class we would learn which countries spoke French, and were then tested only on the population of Haiti. A shame, because it is a beautiful language if taught right. #feynmanchat1920

@PhysicsHawk Mystery as a whole breeds curiosity, and as a result innovation. Mystery gets man wondering of the possibilities, the potential of his work. That potential will then create innovation and structure, and hopefully, at some point, truth and factual evidence.

@PhysicsHawk The story of knitting socks revealed the presence of math and science in everything around us. It's science how I can smell food cooking in the kitchen, and a supply chain used math to organize and distribute food evenly to various stores. Math and science are truly everywhere.

@PhysicsHawk The process of recognizing patterns builds connections in your brain to eventually develop deep and logical thought. Everything builds upon one another in the learning process, and you need to start with the simpler concepts before moving on to advanced scientific thinking.

Q1-Feynman’s father wanted his son to be a scientist, so he started teaching him to recognize patterns early.  How does that recognition of patterns become scientific thinking? #feynmanchat1920

@KaelibraswellP @PhysicsHawk I agree, last minute decisions usually never work, and only result in hurting people or one's image to the public. Preparing early could be a counter to this temptation to do something last minute.

@PhysicsHawk I feel that you can definitely take certain precautions before doing something, but ultimately have to make last minute decisions on whether something is completely safe, because you don't know what the conditions will be like.

Q5-Feynman concludes that rules were changed to meet the schedule, allowing flight at unsafe conditions. Given that nothing can be made 100% safe, how would you design a system that balances safety with goals? #feynmanchat1920

@PhysicsHawk Any new project will have some safety concerns. The nuclear bomb was a risk to even be in the same room with. Going into space at all is a risk entirely, and even jets, cars, missiles. No innovation happens without risk, but safety should be priority before the creation process.

@TischerCade @PhysicsHawk So many variables can easily result in someone overlooking the smaller, more forgettable ones. This can reduce performance or cause potential health concerns.

@PhysicsHawk A problem I have ran into is in something like having a bad race. An issue like this stems from multiple things such as not training properly, eating poorly before a race, and not being hydrates. All of these things play a key role in having a bad race.

Q4-Most disasters aren't caused by one thing. Based on the report, the primary cause is the O-rings, but there are other factors at play that made it worse. What are some things in your lifetime that were likely caused by an interaction of problems, not just one? #feynmanchat1920
